Activity Starts
"Still the same sentence. When your strength is sufficient, all the mysteries will naturally disperse." Daniel shook his head, turned and left, "Remember, your main task tomorrow is to protect yourself."
It seemed that in order not to give Jack the chance to pester, he entered the room of the mansion, closed the door and rested.
Seeing this, Jack could only give up, summoned the system panel, and chose to log out of the game.
Since the event was advanced by four days, it meant that at ten o'clock tomorrow, the Light Faction would be at the city gates. For tomorrow's battle, he must conserve his energy today.
After taking off the game helmet, Jack washed up and fell asleep peacefully.
...
The next day, at half past nine.
Washing his face with cold water to stay absolutely awake, Jack returned to the computer desk and put on the game helmet again.
"Swish!"
Accompanied by the white light, he appeared at the position where he logged out.
At this time, the Gloomy City was bustling with noise. Besides the Skeleton Soldiers, players who signed up for defending the city could be seen everywhere. They formed teams and gathered in groups, discussing something.
Jack: "..."
The noisy and chaotic atmosphere made him a little uncomfortable.
Looking at the endless stream of people filling the huge Gloomy City, he felt the popularity of "Eternal" for the first time.
"Ding! ~"
System prompt: The main quest [Defend the Gloomy City] you received will start at ten o'clock sharp. Please get ready!
"Ding! ~"
System prompt: The quest [Spoiling from the Middle] you received has been activated. If you fail to obtain the first place in the defending city points ranking, the Protection of the Ancient Demon Gods will be deprived!
"Ding! ~"
System prompt: Please note that you will be the third wave of defending BOSS to face the Light Faction. If you are not present, your level will be reduced by 10 and all attributes will be permanently reduced by 1,000!
...
A series of system prompts seemed to be increasing the pressure on Jack.
"Yijianghanshui is online!"
"Damn, I finally get to see the big shot in person. He's quite handsome!"
"Tsk tsk tsk. Now there are probably hundreds of millions of players in the entire game who want to kill him. I wonder if he's panicking..."
...
Jack's online appearance naturally attracted the attention of countless players.
After all, for most players, Jack was very famous, but his appearance was only seen in videos. It was inevitable to be curious.
"Fortunately, I adjusted my appearance a little when creating the character." Jack felt a little relieved.
There were too many players!
In this case, if he used his real appearance, he might be recognized on the street and cause trouble.
"Brother, sign your name, brother!"
"Big shot, how many levels are you now? I'm at level 18 and can't see your character panel..."
...
"Make way!"
Ignoring all kinds of remarks, Jack pushed away the players surrounding him and squeezed onto the city wall.
As the defending BOSS in the third wave, he didn't plan to enter the battlefield in the first round. After all, once surrounded by players and僵持 until the end of the third wave, it would take too long and he would also be in trouble.
This wasn't a game he played alone!
He deeply understood this point, so he was careful in everything.
It was true that with his current strength, there should be few rivals among players. With the defense growth of up to five stars and the bonus of a bunch of silver-level equipment all over his body, it was a luxury for ordinary players to break his defense. But if some players had special opportunities and obtained top-quality items, everything would be different!
There were always people stronger than you. There were always things beyond your knowledge!
There were so many players in the Eastern District. He didn't dare to believe that only he had the chance to obtain rare items like the Forbidden Spell Scroll.
After that, time passed slowly until ten o'clock sharp.
"Ding! ~"
System prompt: The event officially starts!
...
"Rumble... "
At the end of the plain, dust gradually rose.
Jack squinted and could see thousands of horses galloping over, with a huge momentum.
In the blink of an eye, the view was black. They approached quickly. The adventurers and NPCs who were attacking the city were mixed together, densely packed, making people scared.
"Ding! ~"
System prompt: Please note that the Qingfeng Army led by the level 20 bronze-level BOSS [Fighter · Xazuo] will start the first wave of the siege battle!
Looking from afar, Jack could see Xazuo, who was sitting on the horse and swinging the meteor hammer, with a full beard. He was wearing black armor and had a strong build, which was extremely prominent in the front of the battlefield.
"Hahaha..."
He laughed wildly and shouted: "What a shitty Gloomy City. We should have taken back our Skylight City long ago. Brothers, charge for me. Kill all those fools who betrayed the Light Faction and the disgusting Skeleton Soldiers!"
Daniel, who was at the top of the city gate, raised his hand at the right time and shouted: "Fight back!"
The Gloomy City, as a first-level main city, had an unimaginably thick and resilient city wall, which could withstand a large amount of attacks for a long time. But this didn't mean that the defenders must rely on the city wall and not go out.
Fight first, and the long-range professions above the city wall would support. Until they couldn't resist the attack, they would turn to the city wall battle and gradually consume. Only in this way could the advantages of the defenders be maximized.
"Clank clank... "
The iron chains collided and the heavy city gate slowly opened.
Skeleton Soldiers and adventurers rushed out like a tide, spreading out in a fan shape, directly towards the aggressive Qingfeng Army.
"Ding! ~"
System prompt: Please note that as the silver-level BOSS in the third wave, you cannot enter the battlefield in advance!
Before Jack could do anything, the system had already issued a warning in advance.
Regarding this, Jack didn't care.
The first wave was just an appetizer. He wasn't planning to enter the battlefield at all.
"Jeje! Jeje!..."
At the moment when the battle line approached, the Skeleton Soldiers at the front suddenly increased their speed and then jumped, actually kicking the enemies in front with their feet.
"Boom boom boom..."
A large number of players who were in the front were kicked down. Their faces were severely hit, bruised and swollen, extremely embarrassed.
But this wasn't the end. Before they could stand up, the next batch of Skeleton Soldiers rushed up and trampled them down again. Their pale toes moved around on their faces.
"His--"
For a moment, the sound of gasping in the entire battlefield came one after another. Many players covered their heads with their hands and stared at this scene blankly, expressing extreme shock.
"Damn, don't hit the face. These Skeleton Soldiers are too immoral, right?!"
"So fierce Skeleton Soldiers. Fortunately, I'm on the defending side!"
"So classic. I must record the screen and watch it repeatedly!"
...
"Huh?"
Just when countless players were intimidated by the trampling skill of the Skeleton Soldiers, Daniel on the city gate twitched the corner of his eye and couldn't help but turn to Jack who was watching the battle not far away.
This so-called trampling was a new skill in the panel of the Skeleton Soldiers. So who was the mastermind behind it? The answer was obvious.
Noticing Daniel's gaze, Jack turned back and showed him an innocent and bright smile.
Such an evil smile!
Daniel took a deep breath and admired: "Worthy of being the Dark Swordsman..."
He thought his disciple was good in everything except being immoral!
